  • Atari 2600 Adventure-ish games?

    From destruere@21:1/5 to All on Mon Nov 2 23:58:01 2015
    Are there any short "one sitting" PC games similar to Adventure? Maybe something that can randomize but still be completed in under an hour?

    Thanks!

    I read about "The Ground Gives Way" recently and have since played it a
    little. It's a roguelike game which could be completed in an hour. No
    character leveling or XP, success depends on the loot you find...

    The game's free and available from http://www.thegroundgivesway.com/

    Its ASCII, perhaps even a little further back then the era I was looking
    for. Definitely worth a look though, thank you!
